SO, this afternoon I ventured out to 25th and Locust to meet a new client. I don't usually take clients that far away, but I decided to meet him (plus I have an associate who lives over there that can cover for me if it's too much) So I take the bus on Walnut at rush hour. I finally find the building that I didn't even know existed. Really nice loft apartments, nice lobby, etc. I end up 15 min early because that's just what I do. I wait, I call, I wait, my potential client still isn't home. The front desk guy calls and we get to speak. He is running late at work. Sigh... There is nothing I can do, I am already there. I can't get mad because he is just so nice! So I go to sit back down in the lobby and the front desk guy says, "Would you like to use our TV room?" Whaaaaa??!! Um, Yeah!! I said, "Why didn't you tell me about this room 25 min ago?" He leads me back to this living room/library/dining area on the first floor of the building. Big comfy couch, 2 big chairs, HUGE TV, cable, and vacant! Needless to say, my new client found me laying on the couch watching Big Bang Theory on demand. I don't know what it said about first impressions, but I was very happy!
